Perhaps the title of the BIRDS section should require the poster to select "Wild" or "Captive" or "In my Garden" or one of several other options so that the posting of images gets longer and longer an experience and then perhaps people should not bother posting pictures at all.
It is this mentality that causes ructions in many a camera group - I have witnessed arguments that a picture of a wild swallow can't be put in a natural history section of a competition if it is on a telephone wire. Why? Because it shows a man made interference. But where do YOU see WILD swallows all the time? Indeed! I couldn't enter a sparrowhawk picture I got because it's on my fence - man made structure you see? Where do MOST people see WILD sparrowhawks? Yes, you're right...in their gardens chasing the sparrows!
Sheesh...you know...I posted a picture of a bird in a section headed "BIRDS". I didn't post it in the section labelled "WILD AD FREE" because...well, you can guess can't you?
I said to myself that I wouldn't get wound up by you all, but you know what...this is all so petty.
If a moderator could now close this thread, I will post my BIRD shots in a different place to the one headed BIRDS. OK?
